One thing Hammond should get is classroom pets, or at least team pets. One reason Hammond should get them is because it’s fun to have pets. Not only is it fun, but it will also benefit for school. Some way it benefits schools is because it would responsibility, trustworthiness, and caring. It would also help the learning process, and we will feel equality, fairness, and team spirit. the reason I am writing tthis essay is because I know Hammond needs pets, but everyone should know.
If you are wondering if pets teach responsibility, trustworthiness, and caring, then the answer would be yes, it does. In a survey of 60 students (from 7-2) a little less than the whole thing said they would care for a pet, at least once a week. It teaches trustworthiness because a life is on the line, and I know someone wouldn't want to waste a life, which means that if they're trusted for that , then they would be trusted for something else. It also teaches caring because someone wouldn’t want to kick around a pet they bought, instead they would care for it. It will also teach responsibility because you are responsible for the pet, and its needs, like food and water. In fact, most people say that helping to care for a pet teaches responsibility which is why there hasn’t been a lot of cruelty to others, back then.
A team or classroom pet would also be good for the learning process. Life science for example, having a classroom pet would help for the classification system, how it adapts to its environment we put it in, and how it interacts with its environment, and body parts. Also for math, its container could help, by being a great example for dimensions (3-D), and how to calculate the volume of the container, and the things inside of it. In fact, school pets have been found to:
*motivate pupils to think and learn
*encourage a respect and reverence for life
*foster a sense of responsibility
*teach to nurture and respect life
*lead to the developement of hobbies/carriers
*improve academic achievment website from -www.nationalpetmonth.org.uk/schools/index.php in the section schools, from Great British pets.
So even with those reasons, people would say that a school pet would be good for an elementary school.
Having a school pet in school would be like everyone has a school pet, because everyone is caring for the school pet. In fact, having team/class pets, would be a good idea for team spirit. Like having a finch represent the eagles because the are both in the bird category, or a kitten to represent the 6-1 pride. In fact, most kids asked, said they had thought a classroom pet is good for team or school spirit. Out of 60 7-2 kids, a little more than half said that it would be fun to have a team mascot.
Allergy may be a problem in this school, but then again, hopefully, there isn't anyone allergic to a pet besides a cat or a dog. Also, finances won't be a problem because there are finches and other birds as low as $15. It's true that we had fishes, but just like if we fail a quarter, we get another chance to do better. So if we can get another chance with that and have success, then why can't we have another chance with pets, and be successful. Something we should have and hopefully will have, is a classroom pet.

I agree with having a team/class pet. It would teach others how to be responsible and care for something that is valuable to them.
